my friend again, i have nothing against the chareidim and how dare you speak ill of one of the gedolie hador?!!! i hope you are aware of the gemara in sanhedrin that states that anyone who mocks a talmid chachom is an apikores. When the Rav zl uses the word brethren he is speaking out of love and rationalism. He strongly disagreed w/the chareidi approach but he never harbored any feelings of sinas chinam towards them. Hence he still called them brethren, as opposed to many of the chareidim who labled him as an apikores.
